Subject: Re: [PATCH] Add support for usbfs zerocopy.
Date: Tue, 5 Jan 2016 22:49:49 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160106064949.GA14998@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <E1aGbQq-0000sS-SM@pannekake.samfundet.no>
This is a completely broken usage of the mmap interface. if you use
mmap on a device file you must use the actual mmap for the data
transfer.
Our interface for zero copy reads/writes is O_DIRECT, and that requires
not special memory allocation, just proper alignment.
